574 THE GENERA OF FISHES, PART IV 



Carcharodon Miiller & Henle, 2>1 \ orthotype C. rondeleti M. »& H. = Squalus 

 CARCHARiAS L. According to McCulloch, the name Carcharodon is not used 

 by Smith. The earliest reference to Carcharodon is apparently that of 

 Aluller & Henle (Mag. Nat. Hist. 2, H, 1838, Zl , January). Those authors 

 saw Smith's specimens {vide p. 2>Z) and perhaps heard his paper read at the 

 Zoological Society in September, 1837. They therefore quoted the name as of 

 Smith. But Smith's paper was not published until February 13, 1838, he 

 having read Miiller & Henle's paper "about a month previously, in which 

 Carcharodon appeared, and he evidently withdrew it with names he refers to 

 in his paper" (McCulloch, in lit, June 28, 1920).

stated by error on page 244.) The last-named species is referred by Regan

1855. 

 533. COSTA ("1855") should be omitted and transferred to 850 (1864), the 

 proper title being as follows : 



533A. COSTA (1855). (Cyrtorhynchiis.) Cos. Rendic. dell Accad. Pontaniana, 

 1855. 



Oronzio Gabriele Costa. 



Cyrtorhynchus Costa ; orthotype C. leopoldi Costa, said to be a Myctophid, of un- 

 certain relations ; figured by Costa, Faima del regno di Napoli. 



1858. 

 607-612. COSTA (1858). (Uraleptus.) This reference should be canceled, ac- 

 cording to Mr. Henn. The genus Uraleptus Costa should appear under No. 

 350, Fauna del regno di Napoli (1846, p. 30). Gadella Lowe (1843) is still 

 earlier. 



612. COSTA (1858). Luspia Casotti, nuovo gencre di pesci fossili della calcarea 

 tenera leccese, Napoli. 



Oronzio Gabriele Costa. 

 Luspia Costa; orthotype L. casotti Costa (fossil). An ally of Serranus Cuv.
